WHO WE ARE

We are a group of Christians with a God-given passion to know and make known the glories of our crucified and risen Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, the One through whom the God of all grace loved us, sought us, saved us, and called us out of the darkness of our sin into His marvelous light. As an ill-deserving people saved by the grace of God, from the wrath of God, and for the glory of God, Grace Community Church exists to joyfully exalt and magnify the Triune God, to faithfully proclaim the Christ-centered message of the Old and New Testaments, to build each other up by speaking the truth in love, and to bring the good news of the gospel to our city and world so that the Lamb who was slain may receive the full reward for His sufferings.

I’LL BE HONEST

JUSTIFICATION & REGENERATION

What is Biblical Christianity all about? Why did Jesus Christ die? What is the gospel? What is man's ultimate and only problem? How can a sinner be right with a sinless, holy God? What must a person do to be saved? What does it mean to be justified? Why does the Bible teach that we stand in desperate need of justification? How can a righteous God "justify the ungodly” without becoming unjust? What does it actually mean to be born again?

No Savior Like Christ!

There is no Savior like Christ. Sin is inventive; itself the greatest invention of all. It is Satan’s infernal machine for destroying precious souls by the million! In nothing is his ingenuity and power more put forth than in constructing expedients of salvation other than the atoning sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ. But Jesus is the one and only Savior of men; “neither is there salvation in any other; for there is no other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved.” It is the glory of Christ’s salvation that it is perfectly adapted to every condition of our fallen and helpless humanity. Christianity is the only religion that fully recognizes the natural and utter depravity of our nature, and our consequent impotence to save ourselves. Jesus, therefore, is the Savior of sinners. He has undertaken to save us just as we are. He finds us a ruin, and recreates us; he finds us fallen, and raises us up; he finds us guilty, and he cleanses us; he finds us condemned, and he justifies us– all our salvation is in him. All the merit God requires, all the help man needs, all the grace and strength our salvation demands, dwells in infinite fullness in Christ.
